Ben Kingsley and Mary-Kate Olsen Share Onscreen Kiss
Ben Kingsley won an Academy Award for his leading role in the 1982 epic “Gandhi.” Mary-Olsen was born in 1986. Now the 63-year-old Oscar-winner will be locking lips with the two-time winner of a Kids Choice Award in the new movie “The Wackness.”
In the film set for a 2008 release Olsen portrays a drug using seductress who shares a moment with Kingsley’s character, a pot smoking therapist who helps Olsen’s drug dealer.
Kingsley doesn’t seem too concerned about controversy surrounding the kiss. In an interview with “Access Hollywood” he said “(Her character) is this great free spirit, you know, she is equally seducing so it is a level playing field.”
The Kingsley Olsen kiss is not a gateway to anything more as the two never see each other on the screen after that scene.
